Full description
Helprise is an organization that combines global reach with local talent. We work for companies that value quality, partnership, and responsibility, creating teams that really work. By precisely matching skills and business needs, we connect specialists with projects where their knowledge has a real impact. By joining us, you become part of an environment where matching is not a coincidence, but a decision.
We are looking for an experienced Delivery Manager with strong Scrum Master capabilities to drive the delivery of IT products within Quality & Regulatory domains. The role focuses on coordinating cross-functional product teams, managing delivery governance, and ensuring predictable, high-quality releases using Agile, Scrum, and SAFe methodologies. Experience in software testing, product simulation, or complex industrial environments, such as pharmaceutical or chemical manufacturing, would be a strong advantage. The successful candidate will proactively manage dependencies, risks, and delivery commitments while ensuring transparency, accountability, and alignment across teams and stakeholders.
YOU WILL
- Own delivery governance, release readiness, and go/no-go processes, ensuring that entry and exit criteria are met and decisions are properly documented.
- Drive end-to-end delivery execution across product teams, Agile Release Trains (ARTs), and dependent workstreams, from planning and design through production release.
- Facilitate Agile and Scrum ceremonies, support sprint planning and execution, and promote continuous improvement across delivery teams.
- Coordinate prioritization and planning activities with Product Owners, Stream Leads, and cross-functional stakeholders.
- Coordinate testing activities, User Acceptance Testing (UAT) readiness, defect triage, business sign-offs, and release preparation.
- Ensure backlog health, sprint readiness, and consistent use of Jira and Confluence to maintain transparency and execution discipline.
- Build a strong understanding of the product roadmap, business context, and operating model to effectively challenge assumptions and support delivery teams.
- Provide clear, data-driven reporting on delivery progress, risks, milestones, decisions, and release readiness to leadership.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date delivery documentation in Jira, Confluence, ePPM, or other designated project management tools.
- Uphold delivery standards and ensure that releases are postponed when mandatory readiness criteria are not met.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Delivery Manager, IT Project Manager, or Scrum Master in complex IT or software delivery environments.
- Strong practical knowledge of Agile, Scrum, and SAFe frameworks, including experience coordinating delivery across multiple teams or workstreams.
